gollark: CCCloud Autoscaling™ will, if one computer hits a "too long without yielding" issue, spawn a new computer with exactly the same filesystem and randomly connect you to one of them when you use it.

gollark: There would be another bit for managing your "VMs", doing entirely pointless autoscaling and whatnot.

gollark: That would save a lot of programming, mean I wouldn't have to work around the nonexistent support for that one feature my canvas code needs, *and* involve more cloud.

gollark: Great idea, my "cloud platform" can just use Cloud Catcher for the UI!

gollark: The idea is for this thing to stream TRoR to/from a headless CCEmuX (ideally CraftOS-PC eventually) instance to either a browser or ingame computers, possibly with extensions for local peripheral control and stuff.
